A review by jennifermreads
Dangerous Creatures by Kami Garcia

4.0

I was destined to inhale this book. I adored Ridley’s character in the Caster Chronicles so the idea of an entire book with her at its center? Pure, sugary sweetness!

For those new to Lena, Ethan, Ridley, Link, and the rest of the Caster Crew, yes you should read the other Caster Chronicles books first! Those books give lots of background on the entire saga. So, yes they should be read first, yes they should be read in order, and, yes, it is helpful to read the e-novellas - though I thoroughly disagree with the high cost-per-page of the novellas (see my rant in review of Dangerous Dream).

Ridley’s lollipops work magic even when she is not technically in the room. So that lollipop on the cover? It works. Be warned. You will be charmed by her Siren eyelash-batting and sucked into Ridley’s drama! And oh boy does that girl have drama. It follows her everywhere, she just cannot escape it. As hard as she tries to be good, she lapses regularly into her comfortable role of T.R.O.U.B.L.E. And, poor Link is just so wrapped around her lollipop holding fingers!

I loved going back to the Caster world and settling in with these old friends. I also thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Lennox Gates and the crew of Link’s new band. The ending? Just *GASP* And that is not a spoiler. It. Just. IS!
